The Last Planting Of The Year

The ground thawed out this weekend but was to muddy to move a couple trees yet this year. Then yesterday we get an inch of rain making it impossible to get through the mud. Strong winds and temps in the low teens overnight wood freeze the ground very quickly again. I put old carpet around the trees I wanted to move, hoping that would allow the spade to penetrate the ground today. It worked, about an inch of frost under the carpet and the muddy ground I had to drive on was froze solid. This last tree is a Paper Birch.

Rod, you replanting trees that died?? 35 years ago we lost about 25 Dutch Elm trees. 25 years ago we planted 50 seedless ash and now there's a chance they will get ash borer disease. Guess you can't win.
 
Steve we are replacing ash trees that are badly damaged from a ice storm 2 years ago. As You mentioned the threat of emerald ash bore killing those trees anyway is very likely.
